It 's mostly made of wood, like a log cabin, except for the secret underground passage that "Gruncle" Stan keeps from the rest of the world which is very metallic.

Soos, who has worked in the shack since he was twelve, is a friendly large dude in a small brown baseball hat who seems to do a lot of the shacks ' repair work. Stan often overprices the merchandise in the gift shop but the museum features many attractions such as the rock that looks like a face, the worlds most distracting object, a giants ' ear, a T-rex head fossil, shrunken heads, totem poles, a sack of mystery, Gravity Falls wax museum, a dodo bird, a picture of a horse riding a horse, the outhouse of mystery, a crystal ball, an invisible man, and a

    Written and directed by John Duigan with spectacular honesty and sensitivity, the movie features a fifteen-year-old Danny, who experiences a stereotypical coming of age when he falls heavily in love for his childhood friend, an independent and quickly maturing Freya, who has a bundle of dark secrets up her sleeves. When the wild, fascinating and constantly-in-trouble Trevor captures Freya’s heart and ends up getting her pregnant, Danny is strained into a situation that he’s not emotionally compatible to deal with.

    Every little girl grows up loving horses, but most outgrow that desire. I never did. When I was young, I was scared of them because the first horse I fed a carrot to looked as though he could eat me. I was 4 years old and also the size of his head. For the longest time, I wished to ride and train horses even though I did not know a single thing about doing that; today, I teach other people more about how horses work within their herd and how humans can better work with their horse.…
